About Zen: Mindfulness

This book is a guide to what mindfulness is and how it can help in all aspects of our lives. It show us that simple everyday tasks can provide wonderful pauses of mindfulness, where we can reach the present moment, slow down and notice our unconscious thoughts. By noticing our thoughts, we can have a choice in our reactions, rather than responding in an automatic, habitual way. Mindfulness can help with every facet of your life, including strong emotional states such as anxiety or depression. By learning to accept where we are, we can cultivate happiness: the joy of simply being. The present moment is the best and only time to develop true peacefulness and understanding in ourselves and the planet we live on.
